Max boost is always a lie, and this makes me sad.

Agreed. Very useful feature in theory, but I still have to go examine the log to find the actual max boost, not just the quick spike.

I'll see if I can detect the default screenshot action and edit the image (unlikely). Another option would be an app-wide screenshot gesture (4 taps for example). With that functionality I could capture the screenshot inside the app and add the watermark myself then save to the appropriate location.

Doable. Really I need to allocate some time to just sit down and get a customizable grid layout knocked out.

This seems like a pretty popular request.

Doable. Depending on how this upcoming theme takes shape I may go ahead and add it in if it looks right.

I'm actually quite happy with my 6 dials. So long as I don't loose this I'll continue to be happy.

- However -

My car is parked and un-powered for the winter or I'd check the following; (described colors would be background of gauge, maybe inter 2/3, leaving the outer (with the numbers) unchanged)

- Can the AFR gauge turn yellow/red as the values creep towards the un-ideal? (prior to kicking to Map 4)
- Boost be Green unless more than 2 PSI off Target for more than 2 seconds?
- IAT go red if over a user defined threshold
- Trans, Water, Oil have a yellow (warming), green (ideal) and red (too hot)

Really being creative, of the 6 gauges on screen, maybe have the two on the right side (horizontal) only show DME parameters that are starting to go outside of ideal boundaries, but have still not triggered the Safety Map.
So, if the LPFP value is getting within 5% of triggering the Safety Map, have that gauge pop-up on the right in yellow, or even blinking? (on for 4/5 of a second, off for 1/5 of a second, repeating)

This type of action could help reduce the time looking at the log, and only doing so if we see thresholds breached.

So, User Definable Thresholds for each Parameter, where it turns yellow(/red) on breach. Further, the option of having a background monitored values be brought to the foreground on threshold breach. (pre Safety Map being triggered).

I only really use the app in landscape mode as well. The 6 gauges won't be going anywhere.

The color changing gauges based on safety are already implemented in iOS. We'll see how this theme goes. If this one ends up working with that feature, I'll add it into Android at that time as well.

Individual gauge flashing to show a warning is a good idea.

I have some audible safety alerts mostly coded up for iOS that I never got around to releasing so it may be a good time to bring that back as well (including Android users). The update for this theme looks like it's going to be pretty extensive.

**edit, was able to zip it

I like the idea of being able to move/scale the tab/connect/logging buttons along with the gauges. This would make it a completely user-definable display page.

Multiple pages shouldn't be too hard to implement with this.

JB4 Mobile can only display parameters that the JB4 outputs at this time. To request more params, you'll need to reach out to Terry.

Regarding HP and TQ, I'll have to play around with it a bit more.

I can modify the logic for that to not consider any values for Max Boost unless the pedal is being pressed. Email me and we'll see if I can get that fixed up quick. orders@jb4connectkit.com

Looks pretty clean. I like the simple gauges to the right of the main center one.

[brancky3]

Good God this update sounds like it's a ton of work; I can't wait to see it

[codesx]

Dreams I didn't know I had are coming true

Thanks for keeping the Android users in mind too Dmac!

[keninger]

I have modified the colors to kind of match the factory cluster orange color. I had no way of testing this, so it might actually look awful or could also look decent.

I use the first design though from the 2 listed ones on the top. I like that style a lot better.

OK, that is one sweet image. I'm considering portrait.
I love how Boost and Target are in the same image. Snap.

Sweet! I'll add this in as a test and see what it looks like.

That's a good idea as well. Maybe for the grid layout I'll make it so you can drag and drop whichever gauge style you want so you can mix and match.

[Sekans]

I'm seeing requests for being able to customize the size and location of the guages. What about putting them into widgets. Given a few size selections you select the JB4 mobile widget, then it can ask which guage you want and what style. That would give people fully customizable layouts in size, style (mixes of styles and colors), multiple pages of guages, and it would allow for information from other apps that the user may feel vital.

As for the JB4 logo, what about putting one on the Start logging button. I'm looking at my display now and imagining it there and it feels very unobtrusive.

Whishing I had the time to work with the guage files you posted. I would love to recolor them to match the VW red/white/silver on black guage scheme.

Short demo of the start of the customizable gauge interface.

[cebrailbakan]

On iOS with last update , FUD bits settings has been changed without any explanation. Could you please tell how can we adjust bits settings ?

Awesome, cant wait

[Dmac @ BMS/DMD]

Making pretty good headway with the new UI setup. The basic functionality is almost done so I just need to clean up a few things, add some error checking, then I can start implementing this in JB4 Mobile.

[brancky3]

Looks really good, Dmac!

[General.Massacre]

Any updates here gents?

Had to put this on hold temporarily while I did some major behind-the-scenes updates. Those updates are now complete and we are in beta testing. Once the new public release is out, I'll be starting back on this.

We'll have another update thread discussing all of this in the coming days.

[k1kote]

I do not know if it is the correct thread but it would be good to add in the configuration of each gauge that when you choose which parameter to use, it asks you to adjust certain parameters ... if I add boost, I ask for the scale, ex: 0 to 30 ... if I choose AFR asks me to parameter to full throttle start alert me, eg: up to 12.5 full throttle make a visual and / or sound alert, including the ability to move to an emergency map with less PSI automatically. Sorry for my English, I hope you can understand.

Hello,

Is it possible to use this interface?

[k1kote]

Hi, I have several recommendations and good things to implement that could be useful, I hope it's the right thread to post this.

-User Adjustment in the 2nd tab
-The gauges show the highest and/or lowest values ​​reached, example:
*Maximum temperature reached
*IAT minimum temperature reached
-In the case of Boost that shows the frozen Boost peak for 1 second
-Add the variables of "cylinder timing correction" and "misfire count" that can be seen in the VW using the Polarfis, mainly to see them in the log
-More themes and especially one of needles more sober than "Needle Fill"
-The shift light has to be yellow very visible, not red
-To be able to see the logs in metric unit (km/h and C°)
-Programmable visual and audible alerts, example:
*In AFR if the target is 12, outside 11.5 and 12.5 of a visual and/or audible alert only if the X% pedal is
*In Water Temp and Oil Temp above X temperature the gauge appears with a red background
-A map for safe driving that loads no more than 7 psi
-When you leave a log, be selected to know which one you left
-When save changes in User Adjustment the legend that the changes were saved does not appear above the tabs
-Support different languages, I would like Spanish
-Bug: when you are in the list of choosing which variable to see in a gauge, but you go back without choosing a different one, it does not return to the gauges but it shows the Display tab selected but shows the Settings

Sorry if my english is not the best

just bumping this thread. I'm very keen to have the customizable gauges. Especially where we can set parameters to change the colours (like orange for below x temp, green for operating temp and red for above operating temp. it would be nice if they are auto populated with some default values, but allow the user to customize to their preferences for each gauge)

Also, can we make an option for a button to change maps, instead of using the gauge (the gauge option can stay for those that like it, but it does take the space of a another more dynamic gauge, instead of the rather static map selected display).

The button could be optionally displayed via the user settings and could be near the logging and connection button. (The currently selected map should be displayed on the button)

[Magnusk77]

Bump, having the ability to have 8 gauges like MHD would be great.
